“It’s been another great year for movies and TV shows and not only was it an amazing year for creativity, it was also a great year for inclusivity of all underrepresented people. All underrepresented people of all genders and orientations played prominent roles both in front and behind the camera in many of this year’s biggest films, television and streaming series. I am talking about men and women of Asian descent, Latinx, Native Americans and Pacific Islanders,” he told the crowd.

“But particularly it was a great year for African-Americans. Black filmmakers earned a record $1.5 billion dollars at the domestic box office in 2018. This obviously is something very close to my heart, so I thought we’d celebrate with a heartfelt musical tribute.”

He then performed a cover of Cardi B‘s “I Like It”!

“Let’s have a celebration about the representation of my brothers and my sisters in this year’s film presentation,” he sang.

Make sure to tune in TONIGHT for the Critics’ Choice Awards, which will air on The CW at 7pm EST. The show honors the best in both movies and television.
